Great thing on the models. Hope you have fun.

It has been a good thing for me in helping with the rehab from cancer and the resulting disabilities...and it has been a GREAT thing in terms of interacting with my grandsons and teaching them the skill and imparting them good lessons about patience, working with their hands, following detailed technical instructions, and having a sense of achievement and pride in their work.

The good Lord works in our lives in His ways...not our own...and every condition can be turned for the good if we place our faith in Him and His Son.

Here’s my site tracking the model work I am doing:

Thanks for the link! I’m not quite at the Grandpa state yet, but the younger ones of my 7 kids would really enjoy working on models with me. My 2nd youngest has many medical issues, his left side doesn’t work too well - will always live with us because of mental development issues, so anything that gets him to use his left hand and also get a sense of accomplishment is great.

My son-in-law would LOVE to see your stuff!

He’s a WWII buff, and has a small musuem in his house full of books and models and dioramas and WWII memoribilia.

He has a CarryAll that he has restored and drives to air shows and other military gettogethers. (It’s name is, wait for it...

...ELSIE!

(My daughter’s an ELSIE, too)
